It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Manoman, they took my suggestion. Happy about that. The cover itself is pale blue, with this ghostly shadowed greyscale 18th century cottage and thatched barn. Dan says he'll not only tell the art department about making the peelaway a piece of sheet music, but also suggest using the sheet music theme as a design element throughout the book.

And the cover says "The first in a new series bringing old English mystery ballads into the modern world".

Large as life! and twice as natural!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Oh, beautiful, Deb! I can't wait to hold my very own copy in my hot little hands!

Bev, this one is literally uncorrected proofs - no way would I give this one to people.

And may I hear it for the Old Net Tie school of author promos and coincidence having an arm that drags the ground behind it? Betsy forwarded me a note about the Sunnyvale Borders actively wanting published authors to do signings/readings. Guy's name is David Medinnus. So, having got the confirmation of the dates for general availability (5 November), I called him.

Old GeNie network guy, from the SFRT (Science Fiction Round Table). Old, tight friend of both Nic and Marta. He's on the phone as we speak, setting up 2 readings at the Sunnyvale Borders for me (one weeknight, one weekend) and is phoning all the major Borders up and down the Left Coast, to hook me up for Launch week and beyond.

I am so damned pleased.

Oh, sweet on the readings setups! This is so exciting--thank you for sharing it with us greedy wannabes!

Ah, no, no way was I angling, Deb. I meant when it finally is available commercially. It shall be mine!!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Deb, speaking of Still Life, I am so sorry that I never got comments back to you. Life hit the crazy-crazy with the move. Do you still need the comments?
